Alan was excellent. From visiting prior and advising what was possible, to fitting new finishings in my bathroom to make it look like a new room, I couldn't fault him. Work was completed to a high standard and Alan was exceptionally knowledgeable, displaying a wide range of skills.Verified reviewerJob location: PO12 - DDarren H

Alan recognised that the work needed to be done quickly, and came to do it the day after we spoke. He clearly knew exactly what to do, and made the damaged stair safe. He was very friendly, and his charges are reasonable.Verified reviewerJob location: PO14
